Receptor-type guanylate cyclase is required for carbon dioxide sensation by Caenorhabditis elegans

CO2 [CO subscript 2] is both a critical regulator of animal physiology and an important sensory cue for many animals for host detection, food location, and mate finding. The free-living soil nematode Caenorhabditis elegans shows CO2 [CO subscript 2] avoidance behavior, which requires a pair of cilia...
